The Vasulka Effect
Sound Recordist
The opening of The Vasulka Effect couldn’t be more apt: Steina Vasulka addresses her husband Woody through various TV screens. He does the same and replies. A perfect image of the relationship between the free-spirited, groundbreaking pioneers of video art. After meeting in Prague in the early 1960s, they relocated from Czechoslovakia to New York, where they later founded The Kitchen, their legendary art and performance gallery.

La carrera ha comenzado. Dom Toretto y su equipo volverán en esta ocasión con más ganas de guerra que nunca. No faltarán los excesos de velocidad y la adrenalina a raudales para un filme del que se espera que sea la entrega con más acción de esta saga callejera por excelencia.
I Want to Be Weird
Sound Designer
The documentary is a portrait of concept artist Kitty Von Sometime and her journey as she creates the Weird Girls Project. The Weird Girls - “an extraordinary art event for ordinary girls” - is a one day performance, but actresses are not allowed. From it’s conception seven years ago by Kitty Von Sometime, The Weird Girls Project has quickly become a national phenomenon in Iceland and every episode is covered by the national TV and print media. Between a pop event and feminist activism, performance art and a goliardic action, the project gives voice and space to woman to freely express themselves in a fabulous and unique carnival.
